Chapter 336: Sacrificial, 2-Level Decrease

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

“Eighteen Massacres, die!”

Lin Jie’s voice sounded as though a verdict, and coupled with his 6 Winged Holy Light Armor, he seemed godly.

Kaboom!

The ground trembled violently, as the Earth Giant went mad! It swung its right hand, it was the basic attack skill [Wield], combined with the Dark Gold Overlord’s powerful attack abilities, one wave, was able to cause life-damaging hits to the Mages!

Duang—

The attack crashed onto the Magic Flame Armor!

After a loud bang, the Earth Giant’s arm was jolted out instead and crashed into Earth Elements, and then into several more tiny Earth Giants. This was the Earth Giants’ special ultimate move [Earth Elemental Split]. Once activated, when the Overlord was under attack, partial damage would be immuned, while splitting into many tiny giants to attack the target. As teamwork made the dream work, with so many Earth Giants, and many of them at the level of Rare Elite, even elite guilds with hundreds of members would find the situation troublesome.

Everyone sucked in cold air, luckily Lin Jie had appeared to save the day. Otherwise, with Eighteen Massacres’ method, wouldn’t they have been swarmed away by the countless tiny Earth Giants?

Currently, the Magic Flame Armor, which radiated a ‘mocking’ aura, blocked all the attacks, rendering the Earth Giants unable to break through!

“F*ck, this guy was planning to kill us from the very beginning!” Seven Feet Mountain raging, it was always them who were scamming others, but they were having the shorter end of the stick now.

Seven Feet Mountain crushed the Fire Crystal in his palm, the Pyroblast that usually took 3.5 seconds to be released, was fully unleashed in 1.75 seconds. With such great flame intensity, it was twice the power of a normal Fire Explosion Spell!

Of course, it was powerful! Although the Fire Crystal was incomparable to the Earth Crystal, it was still a well-known ultra-rare material!

3 Pyroblast, from three different directions, shot towards Eighteen Massacres like shooting stars! To Lin Jie’s delight, Seven Feet Mountain, and the two others had already learned the fire spell [Fire Orbit]. Hence, it would increase the accuracy of the Pyroblast!

“Hmph, Lone Wolf, you think you can kill me with these idiots? You are not the kind to be getting others to attack. Instead, you must have your reasons to be unable to fight! Since this is the case, I will kill these trash first! You can’t kill me, but I want to see what other tricks you have up your sleeves!”

Eighteen Massacres was meticulous, and he was able to see through Lin Jie’s apprehension in attacking. Indeed, if Lin Jie was to kill Eighteen Massacres, the Ancient Wilderness Curse would pile up Level 19, and his level would drop when Lin Jie would be battling the Earth Giants!

“Blood Avatar!”

As the Pyroblasts approached, Eighteen Massacres put his palms together, and three bloody monotonous doppelgangers appeared and faced the attacks head-on.

-938! -930! -1,039!

The Pyroblast’s intensity was tremendous, coupled with the Fire Crystal’s enhancement, it was able to instakill the target! However, Eighteen Massacres still did not suffer any damage, and the ones that were bombed away were his avatars.

Lin Jie squinted his eyes. ‘I must learn this blood avatar skill, and personally slay all 150 Guild of Light units within three days, then rob the corpses and generate the avatars. The maximum number of avatars to bring at any time, and they will have 30% of the owner’s attributes and health points. Damn, the baffling massacres along the Telen Village in City of Light must have come out of this guy’s hands!’

Lin Jie’s rage grew. He was constantly thinking of how to become the City of Light’s leader, and as a city leader, the support from the civilians held utmost importance. Due to the carnage at Telen Village that still had zero investigation advances, Caesar the Great and his support had dropped by 10%.

“Dark Forward Sprint!”

Eighteen Massacres’ shadow flashed and appeared in front of Seven Feet Mountain in an instant. His Seven Style Spear transformed into a huge axe and found its target at his neck!

Weak Spot!

-729! (Critical Hit!)

The instant the Critical Hit popped, Eighteen Massacres’ body seemed to be boosted, and the subsequent attack had a damage level of 800+. This was the Dark Shrine’s Battle Instinct!

[Battle Instinct]: The moment you enter battle mode, every attack would have a small percentage of an increase in attributes.

“Die!”

Eighteen Massacres bellowed, and Seven Feet Mountain was killed by a series of attacks all under a second! Even if Lin Jie wanted to help, he could not get there in time and could only look at Seven Feet Mountain being killed painfully!

“Hahahahaha! Lone Wolf, I killed him right in front of you, what can you do to me?” Eighteen Massacres chucked. This time, his spear pointed to Small Melon and his subordinates. He wanted to break the Magic Flame Armor to let the Earth Giants’ attack pass!

“You’re courting death!”

Lin Jie was furious, he wanted to make use of these people and the Pyroblast to kill Eighteen Massacres. However, he had not anticipated that Eighteen Massacres had learned the Blood Avatar skill, evading the Critical Hit, and making Lin Jie’s plan fall through. Since it had come to this stage, he could only go into battle.

Lin Jie was never an irresolute person. His goal was to always bring his gains to the greatest extent. If he could retain his level upon killing Eighteen Massacres, it would be the best outcome.

However, now, Lin Jie had to attack!

Although Eighteen Massacres had never won against him before, he was still one of the upper-tier believers of the Dark Shrine, and he had consumed the Dark Holy Water to boost his attributes. It seemed as though Eighteen Massacres was able to obtain several powerful skills on different occasions, based on abilities, both of them were comparable! It was effortless for Eighteen Massacres to kill those ordinary players.

‘Looks like I have to activate the Holy Church mission earlier, to hammer the Dark Shrine for once! Otherwise, if Eighteen Massacres were to continue leveling up at this rate, the consequences would be too ghastly to comprehend,’ thought Lin Jie thought.

Then Lin Jie flipped his hands, and Broken Blade appeared, and he struck!

The Seven Style Spear transformed into a spear and was about to block Lin Jie’s attack. Of course, Eighteen Massacres was not so foolish to think that Lin Jie would not attack. Thus, he turned his spear to the ordinary players instead of him at first. Despite his large ego, he understood that Lone Wolf had many tricks up his sleeves. If they were to battle, Eighteen Massacres did not have a high chance of winning!

However, once the Vice Shrine Master was summoned, everything would be simple!

Bam—

Two damage figures appeared above Eighteen Massacres after their swift contact.

-687!

-102!

Eighteen Massacres’ health bar decreased by 20% due to one normal attack! This surprised Eighteen Massacres that had strong confidence in his self-defense skills.

“Sh*t, such high damage, how can this be?” Eighteen Massacres growled angrily but did not dare to attack again. His right hand swung, and several black pellets flew into the air and suddenly exploded, filling the surrounding air with thick black fog!

Lin Jie felt his vision darken as he lost sight of his surroundings.

Special item, [Black Fog Pellet]: Create a mass of fog, resulting in a great decrease in the target’s vision.

The others’ vision also decreased rapidly amidst the black fog, and of course, Eighteen Massacres’ was not affected at all.

Lin Jie’s eyes rolled. ‘It’s fog! This is great!’

Fog Concealment!

Lin Jie activated the skill, and he disappeared. This greatly surprised Eighteen Massacres, could Warriors go into Stealth Mode? How could this be fair? But what Eighteen Massacres did not know was that this was all thanks to him. Otherwise, Lin Jie would not have been able to unleash his skill.

Shield Cut!

Lin Jie appeared instantaneously, and Broken Blade glimmered intensely! Shield Cut could disregard Defense, and once hit, Eighteen Massacres’ health points would be reduced by half. With a follow-up Army Obliteration, Lin Jie would be able to kill him!

As for Clomaros’ Kill, it was Lin Jie’s ultimate move, there was no need for him to unleash it here.

Lin Jie chose the right time to attack, which was when Eighteen Massacres was using his skills to search for the target while waiting for his attack to recover. Players would experience a slight pause when attacking, and this pause was known as ‘Back Pitch’, or ‘Public Cooldown’, referring to the rigidity between two actions.

In that flash of opportunity, Lin Jie attacked! As Broken Blade sought Eighteen Massacres’ bare neck, the cold Blade Aura combined with the power of Shield Cut. Based on Lin Jie’s powerful attacking skills, if these two skills were to hit, Eighteen Massacres would surely die!

“Damn it, Lone Wolf, you are the one that’s forcing me!” Eighteen Massacres ground his teeth, and his eyes flickered. He seemed to have made a grave decision as he took out the token and bellowed, “Sacrificial! Blood Inferno, Ghost Claw!”

Kaboom—

The ground cracked open, and blood bubbled from beneath. Lin Jie seemed to be able to see the bloody hell through the cracks, with countless tormented souls shrieking from underneath. Several bloodied hands suddenly emerged from below and grabbed Lin Jie’s ankles.

Ding~

Battle Prompt Message: Eighteen Massacres sacrificed 2 levels, causing targets within 50 yards to lose their mobility for 10 seconds.

Eighteen Massacres’ vitality grew weak as he dropped 2 levels instantly! This guy was harsh on himself!

This skill’s effect was too trashy! Losing mobility just meant that Lin Jie was unable to move. If Eighteen Massacres were to attack Lin Jie, the latter would still able to kill him. The greatest use of this skill was for escape purposes, such as entering maps like the Poseidon Shrine to steal a treasure. Sacrificing a level, and leaving immediately would prevent the valuable and equipment on him from exploding out.

However, Eighteen Massacres was wrathful as this was his Epic Mission! Furthermore, he would be invincible after killing Lin Jie and obtaining the Broken Blade!

Hence, Eighteen Massacres was giving it his all!

“Ah, what is this?”

“So disgusting, ugh…”

The ground turned into a bloodbath as pairs of hands held onto their ankles. They seemed to be pulling them to hell and climbing up their legs.

A real-life horror movie!

Eighteen Massacres lost 2 levels, and his grade fell from 31 to 29. However, he was still very powerful. After constraining Lin Jie, he began unleashing various strong skills, killing the rest of the players! The Seven Style Spear pierced consecutively, killing Small Melon and the rest that were using the Magic Flame Armor, naturally, that caused the armor to lose effect. Other than that, the map exploded as well!

Kaboom—

As the Magic Flame Armor disappeared, the Earth Giants broke free from the taunting restrain and begun their massacre—the death count increased! In an instant, all players except Lin Jie were all killed!

Eighteen Massacres, tenacious resolution indeed!

The souls covered the sky and were absorbed in Eighteen Massacres’ Blood Token.

“Hahaha, hahaha, Lone Wolf, it’s over for you, you are a goner!” Eighteen Massacres witnessed the number of souls in the Blood Token reach 500, and he began laughing wildly. “Today, you will die here! Broken Blade is mine now! Come, Dark Lord, Bloody King, I offer you 500 souls for your arrival. Blood Sub-Shrine Vice Shrine Master—King of Blood, I summon you!”
